I hope there are harsh penalties against Vullo. Suing the taxpayers of NY does nothing to punish the government thugs.
I would think if the Federal or state Government has regulatory control over a business entity, and issues a “wink-wink” suggestion that the entity take action against a third party, de-facto intimidation is manifest. The “wink-wink” meaning “ we can shut you down”
Along with Trump, Titia James added the scalp of the NRA to her belt by suing them over executive expense accounts. In another political kangaroo trial, she gutted them for millions. Now she parades around in their skin suits. Despicable.
Feel free to send this to your Congressional ‘representative’:
‘ESSENTIAL’ FEDERAL SPENDING BILL
....
The Treasury shall withhold payment of all funding under current federal law to the State of New York, the City of New York, the City of Buffalo, New York County, Kings County, Queens County, Bronx County and Erie County and pay it instead to Donald J. Trump upon his application at any IRS office in the State of Florida until he has received $560 million in reallocated funds.
Payment he shall so receive shall be free of federal revenue imposition.
There shall be a 100% federal excise tax levied on all plaintiff punitive damage award income in excess of 10% of the federally taxable income of each defendant in jurisdictions below the national level where the wrongful conduct took place in the last federal income tax year for which a federal return was last due prior to the initial case filing date.
There shall be a 100% federal excise tax levied on all plaintiff punitive damage income in excess of a highest net annual income, of each plaintiff, of a recent tax year after 2009 and prior to case filing, which may selected by each plaintiff, or otherwise by a way acceptable to the Secretary of the Treasury, which was timely reported to the IRS for possible or actual Amendment XVI taxation.
Each plaintiff, each legal representative and each court shall file such federal tax returns as the Secretary of the Treasury shall require and be liable to the maximum reasonable extent for tax payment.
Governments by their construct are coercive entities. This fact alone is the reason government should be keep as small as possible. Human nature being what it is inevitably leads to the illegal use of government resources to control not so much what has been made illegal, but what the folks running the government don’t like. Our national government needs to shrink by about 40%.
This is a waste of time. The NRA will NEVER win a case in any of the DNC’s Feral courts.
“”With the grace of Allah almighty, the Martyr Izz ad-Din Al-Qassam Brigades announced the introduction of Shawaz (1) armor-piercing explosive device into service. The sapper units of Al-Qassam [Brigades] detonated one of the devices on intruding enemy vehicles in their last raid on the Jenin camp, proving its highly destructive capabilities. Engineers of the unit continue to work day and night to produce the highest number of devices and develop newer versions of it. It is a jihad of victory or martyrdom.”
“Improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are said to have caused between half and two-thirds of all American deaths and injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan. Of the roadside bombs encountered by U.S. troops in those warzones, EFPs are among the most lethal.
“EFPs detonate with a force capable of traveling more than a mile per second and can breach tank armor 300 feet away. The devices are fashioned from commonplace items, including steel, PVC pipe, and explosives and are sealed with a copper disk.”

“Henry Shrapnel (1761-1842)...invented an antipersonnel weapon capable of defragmenting with the explosion of charge. Modern grenades or improvised explosive devices may be seen as an evolution of Shrapnel’s ammunition.”
“The device can defeat the defenses on the most heavily armored U.S. vehicles, including the 60-ton Abrams tank. It blasts a molten projectile with immense force through its target.”

“[US] Soldiers said EFPs, hidden in foam blocks imitating street curbs and rocks, ripped through vehicles driving along dirt roads, with shards of the copper slug shredding armor and bodies at incredible speeds.”

Of course they did. IF the SCOTUS rules any other way, then Red States need to get in on this thuggish game too for Leftist companies and entities in their jurisdictions.
“Nice company you have there. It’d be a shame if my army of auditors found you did not dot every “i” and cross every “t” on every regulation there is such that I had to fine you into oblivion and/or jail your corporate officers.”
